Factor XIII Prevents Pulmonary Emboli in Mice by Stabilizing Deep Vein Thrombi.

CONCLUSION: FXIII supplementation stabilized venous thrombi, even in the presence of anticoagulants, and did not alter thrombus size. Supplemental FXIII may be useful to stabilize DVT and be an alternative adjunctive treatment to minimize PE, even when anticoagulants are used. PMID: 31005064 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
